Sorry Friend I want to ask one thing more . it is possible to Jtag Gemini 4.4 .

[krazylegz]

it doesnt matter what image is on your box as gemeni 4.3.1 has corrupted your bootloader on the box.

so try your luck and jtag it, keep your fingers crossed and if it works DO NOT put a gemeni image back on, dont know why people use gemeni anyway they're sh*t

(oh and ps use the thanks button to say thanks as you'll end up getting wrong for using a post to say it;))

[qnd_nz]

Thanks for your all support . I jtag My DM500 and it is alive and I upgraded it with NabiloDM500-V08-MAXVAR . Once again thanks for your All Support .

[redhound]

the best thing to use on these boxes are pogo pins held in place with a pencil and bluetack on the jtag,that way there isnt any need to solder a box connection.although dvbseller seems to selling replacement boards now.

I think you might help yourself a lot more if posted something a bit more constructive than the above comments such as what you have tried so far and what results you have had.

[redhound]

the main thing to do is not rush in and make mistakes,its only software damaged,tmc sells jtags if you are not sure.this setup made out of header pins can save soldering to the board.

Why I am not able to see the image ?

[rickets]

I suspect not enough posts. Think you might need 5 good informative posts first ;-)

I have the same problem please help!

Get a new board from DVBseller for 40eu

So that the program Dreamflash v0.1 DanMark works (tested personally) with jtag, the jtag can only have resistences and they can't have more than 10cm.

The connections are:

LPT--------------> Dreambox/Clone

2 --> 100 ohms --> 11 ( Halt)

3 --> 100 ohms --> 9 ( Tms )

4 --> 100 ohms --> 7 ( Tck )

5 --> 100 ohms --> 3 ( Tdi )

11 --> 100 ohms --> 1 ( Tdo )

25 ------------------ 16 ( Ground)



Th pins 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 e 25 of the port LPT must be shunted between themselves, like commercial jtags has.




Now, The cience of the thing (thanks to Matrix10 tip) is doing the connect and turn on the box at the same time.



With the tests done I've understood better how it works great:

The secret is in 1? do connect to the program and then turn on the clone, but with a certain delay. This delay depends on the speed of your CPU, the faster CPU's, minor the time/delay (between 0 e 1 seconds).

Change the priority of the program jtag_windows.exe on the task manager for the real time which must turn more real the delay itself, once the program will give maximum priority of the use of the CPU.



About the timming, if it shows you only "ERROR:register test failded" then the jtag is ok, but you have turned on the box sooner then expected, if it shows you the 4 times "ERROR: communication with LPT/JTAG", then you must turn on the box sooner, or the jtag isn't ok.

Remmember that you must connect the box always after making connect on the program.



After you must warp/straight the pins on the adaptor switch of the box, so it fits faster on the electric switch.

By end, you must use an electric switch easy to fit, I have used one triple (from the bad ones), but I had to dismount it and press their electric pins to don't make bad contact.

When doing "write" the program sends immediately the boot, that is the file "blimg".

The file present in this attachment is the boot of a DM500 and tunner ALPS of CRC-32 9055B110, once again thanks Matrix10, because I've tested a boot that were supposed to be for the DM500 and ALPS and it didn't worked, and this one in the attachment is guaranteed it works.

after sending the boot of 128KB by Jtag, you can turn on the box with dreamup and by rs232 send an image (with exception of Gemini 4.3.1 because some people say it kills clones... )
